The computer barely just shut down when Joshua appeared by the door.

“Joshua.” Aura awkwardly stood up and smiled unnaturally. She subconsciously placed herself in front of the computer, blocking the computer monitor from Joshua.

“Why would you come here suddenly?”

Joshua furrowed his brows lightly. He looked at Lucas. “Turn on the computer.”

Aura tried to stop Lucas. She smiled at Joshua. “Why are you trying to look into my computer?”

Then, she pretended to calmly instruct her manager, “Why don’t you bring the guest downstairs and make some tea?” When she said that, her tone was trembling a little already.

Joshua, who was standing by the door, was indifferent. “There is no need for tea. If you don’t want Lucas to turn on your computer, you’ll do it yourself.”

Aura clenched her fists tightly. He came too suddenly. She did not have time to prepare at all!

Her computer was not only filled with her conversation with the spammers but also the photographs that were taken of Joshua

    The manager was baffled by the slap.With her face down on the floor, she turned her head up, then looked at Aura blankly. “Aura, you were the one that told me to do it…”Why was it all her fault at that moment? “Since when have I told you to do such things?” Aura slapped her manager another time. “I told you not to make a huge fuss of this. Don’t do meaningless things like this, yet you refuse to listen!”Then, Aura looked at Joshua with her eyes filled with tears. “Joshua, Luna, I’m sorry that I did not take care of my manager. You can hate me all you want. I will accept it.”She wiped off her tears. “Thank you. If you did not come in time, I wouldn’t have known that she was using my computer to do such things!”Luna could not help but sneer at her exceptional acting skills.Joshua also slightly furrowed his brows. “Didn’t you notice one bit that she was using your computer to do such things?”“Of course,” Aura said looking aggrieved, “You should know that I’m not tech savvy

    “The reason we were arguing was that she secretly stole my bank account passcode and used my money.”Then, Aura lowered her head. Her voice was filled with aggrievance. “I did not want to tell you at first. This is too embarrassing. I was just afraid that she did not have enough money, so I gave her my passcode. I did not know that she would steal so much from me…”After a while, Aura bit her lips. “Yet Luna wants to use this method to decide whether I knew about this or not, I feel wronged. I truly do not know anything! I was only being a kind person letting my manager use my money and my computer, yet I got dragged down as well.”“Nonsense!” Her manager bit her lips and retorted, “I do not know your passcode!”Aura mocked. “You dare admit that you know about it? Using my money without asking is considered theft. You could go to court for this!”Her manager could not explain herself.Luna pursed her lips. “No matter what, Ms. Gibson, you are innocent, right? Actually, you don’t

    This did not only shock Luna. Aura was stunned too.What happened? She was the one that transferred the money to the spammers’ syndicate from her account. Why did it suddenly become the company’s account?However, that was not the time to think about it.Aura collected her emotions. She turned around and slapped the manager brutally once more. “Thank goodness you still have a guilty conscience! Luckily you used the company’s account. If not, I would not be able to clear my name!”After going through all this, the manager finally understood Aura’s intention. She could only helplessly play along. “How could I use your private account for such things…”Aura smugly pursed her lips. She turned to look at Luna. “Can this proof my innocence now?”Luna furrowed her brows and looked at Aura. Where did it go wrong? Neil would never have given her false records.She slowly looked at Joshua by the side.If it was not Neil, then it must be Joshua. He deliberately instructed Lucas to say tha

    Although she did not know why the records would show the company’s account instead of hers, no matter what, she has won! Luna was just a lowly maid. How dare she tried to go up against her? She clearly overestimated her abilities! “Aura,” Joshua said in a low voice, which brought Aura back to the moment.She concealed the arrogance in her eyes and looked at Joshua obediently. Her voice sounded gentle and humble. “Joshua, what is it?”Joshua was aloof toward her enthusiasm. After a while, he looked at her. “I do not wish for this to happen again. You’d better watch it.”Then, he strode and left. Behind him, Lucas looked at Aura closely before turning around and following after Joshua.“Lucas.” Back in the car, Joshua was leaning in the backseat. His long, slender fingers were gently rubbing his temples.“How long have you been working for me?”Lucas hesitated for a while. He smiled and said while starting the car, “Sir, about six years already.”“Hmm.” Joshua leaned back an

    “Yes.” Lucas nodded.“You have been with Ms. Gibson for so many years, yet you have never bought clothes for her once. But, today, you especially picked two sets of clothes to give to Luna.“Last time, no servants in the house would dare to defy you. Those that did would have been fired. However, Luna had contradicted you so many times, yet you are not mad at her. Neither did you fire her. Also…”“Enough.” Joshua coldly pursed his lips. He interrupted Lucas. “I will pay attention to the distance between her and me in the future.”Then, Joshua closed his eyes and lazily leaned back. “Lucas. This is the first mistake you’ve made after working for me for so many years. I’ll forgive you for now, but it won’t happen again.”Lucas was delighted. “Are you going to pursue this matter?”He meant Aura. Joshua smiled coldly. “I have my plans.”The report of the Ferris Wheel incident was not out yet. He could not determine if the incident had to do with Aura or not, but the incident that

    However, there was nothing much Nigel could apologize for regarding this matter.After all, he was only trying to help her speed up the process of splitting Joshua and Aura up.Only that, none of them expected that Joshua’s partiality to Aura was to an extreme extent.At that thought, Luna let out a long sigh. She replied to Nigel, [I don’t blame you. Take good care of yourself].Actually, this was the first time Nigel had sent her a message ever since Luna returned to the country.The last time, on the Ferris Wheel, Nigel did contact Luna via Nellie’s necklace, but that was due to an emergency.Nigel was against her decision to return to the country. Because of that, Nigel even gave her the cold shoulder.“Mommy, please don’t go back? We’ll find a better way. We don’t need that man.“I don’t want you to return to him. I don’t want you to bear him another child.“If that’s the case, I would rather die than let you suffer. Don’t have anything to do with that man, please…“I wo

    Luna ignored him.The person she did not want to see most at that moment was Joshua.She went past the sofa and headed to the kitchen to pour herself a glass of water.“Get me a glass too,” Joshua’s low and aloof voice came from the living room.Luna rolled her eyes and swore at him in her heart, but she still respectfully poured him a glass of water and placed it on the coffee table.She did not forget that she was a maid at that moment. He was the master of the house.The maid poured a glass of water for her master. It was the most ordinary thing in the world.“Why were you crying?”The moment she put the glass of water on the coffee table, Joshua gracefully stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray.His deep eyes were locked onto her face like he was trying to read her mind.Luna sniffled, put the glass down, and stood up straight. “Nothing. I just wanted to cry.”She gave Joshua a respectful glance. “Mr. Lynch, if there is nothing else, I’m heading upstairs.”Then, she t

    The drunk Joshua openly talked about how they met in front of Luna. His heartfelt words were all words of hypocrisy in Luna’s ears. He never knew that the first time they met was not under the cherry blossom tree. It was when he met with an accident.Many years back, Joshua met with a serious accident. When the car crashed into him, he was abandoned by the side of the road. It was Luna that rescued him and sent him to the hospital. She took care of him for a whole month while he was in a coma.She liked him, but she did not dare to fall for him. She knew that she was too ordinary.

She loved him to bits and finally married him.On the wedding day, he told her plainly

    At that, he looked at Gwen. "Actually…"Steven found himself unable to finish his sentence. After a long while, he shook his head and smiled. "Forget about it.""Steven…" Gwen looked at him, and her tears fell.Her heart was not made of stone. How could she not know Steven's feelings toward her?She was silent for a long while. In the end, she stood up and slowly walked over to Steven with arms opened wide. "Give me a hug."Steven hesitated for a while, but he still stood up.They hugged."Gwen." Steven hugged her thin figure. "I have to meet you earlier in the next life so I can compete fairly with my brother."Gwen nodded with tears streaming down her face. "Okay."They thus hugged once more. Minutes later…"He's gone," said Stefan.Tears kept falling.They hugged for a while longer before pulling apart. Gwen looked at Stefan with her tear-stricken face. He had tears on his face as well.She bit her lips and reached out to wipe his tears. "A—Are these tears…yours or his?

    The next day, Rachel flew from Merchant City to Sharnwick City to diagnose Anne's condition. Theo tagged along as well because he had another identity, Rachel's boyfriend."According to the report, Anne's condition is slowly recuperating." Rachel was relieved after assessing the report. "Although she is very weak, she is going to get better with lots of rest."There is nothing wrong with her vocal cords too. It could be a psychological thing that makes her lose her voice. A knot in her heart that causes it." She looked at Luna, then at John. "Considering all factors, I think that knot is Luna."Rachel continued, "John, I know Luna is the root cause of all these bad things. Being away from Luna, Joshua, and other people is going to guarantee a safer life for you and your family. But have you thought about it from Anne's point of view? Other than you and Sammie, she has her own life and her circle of friends. Never has she blamed Luna for what happened, yet you forced her to leave Lun

    It was almost a miracle for Anne to willingly leave the house just to visit him!Robyn, meanwhile, sobbed at the sight.The nurse who accompanied Anne to the ward was puzzled. What was going on with these people?She snuck her phone out of her pocket and took a photo of this surreptitiously. Then, she sent it into the nurse's group chat with the caption, [What a strange family I met today.]The nurses in the group chat began gossiping about this. One of them tagged a fellow nurse named Daisy and said, [Hey, isn't this the guy who saved the old man you're looking after? What a hero!]Daisy was, at this moment, walking into Andy's room to help him change his wound dressing. She saw the message but was not able to type on her keyboard to respond, so she recorded a voice message instead. "Yes, that's the man. What's wrong with his family? What are you guys talking about?"As soon as she finished her sentence, she lifted her head and finally realized that Andy was not there.Instead,

    Anne stared at John for a long time before forcibly smiling and told him in sign language, "Robyn didn't return after so long, so I got worried and came by to check on her.""Daddy, Aunt Robyn, are you two hugging?" Sammie asked, blinking innocently as she raised her head in curiosity.John and Robyn turned pale at this.It was understandable for such a young child like Sammie to misinterpret them as hugging, but what would Anne think of this?John leaped off the bed and staggered toward Anne. "Anne, it's just a misunderstanding…"However, he was still so weak that his legs could not hold up the full weight of his body at all, and he almost crumpled to the ground.Quick-witted Robyn managed to catch him before he could fall, but this gesture appeared once again rather intimate to both Anne and Sammie. Sammie furrowed her brow and asked rather indignantly, "Are you hugging again? Daddy, how can you hug Aunt Robyn like this when you've never even hugged Mommy and me like this befor

    When the nurse pushed Anne to John's ward, she overheard John and Robyn fighting from the door. The fight was about how John was anxious to return home because he was worried about Anne and Sammie.However, as someone who used to work as a nurse, Robyn knew John should not leave the hospital after being shot by a gun. At least, he needed to stay in the hospital and be observed for 24 hours to make sure that he was fine before leaving the hospital. If an infection happened, John's body would crash easily and he would become weak just like Anne.In the ward, John frowned and talked with a serious tone, "I'm really fine. Get me my clothes so I can go upstairs to thank Miss Andie and go back home immediately. If Anne knows that I'm hurt, she is going to worry. She will easily be suspicious since you haven't gone back home for a long time. What if she worries about me and brings Sammie to the hospital to look for me? Can you bear yourself even just thinking about it? She's weak and Sammie

    Sammie's soft and cute babyish voice melted Stefan's heart immediately. It had been quite some time since he actually put a smile on his face. "Hi, there. What's your name and how old are you?"Sammie tilted her head to look at Stefan's handsome face and smiled sweetly, "I'm Samantha but everyone calls me Sammie."Then she did not forget to introduce Anne to Stefan too. "This is my Mommy. Her name is Anne."At this point, Stefan had given all of his attention to Sammie and did not notice Sammie mentioned that her mother's name was Anne. He pinched Sammie's cheek and said, "Your Mommy is not feeling well. You have to be a good girl and take care of her, do you understand?"Sammie nodded seriously and said, "I will.""Alright, sir. I will bring them to where they want to go," the nurse saw Anne signing to her anxiously. She smiled and said, "Don't worry. I will take good care of them."The promise from the nurse gave an assurance to Stefan that they would be well taken off. He smil

    This was the first time Anne brought Sammie out. Ever since she escaped from death, she became a different person—a recluse and was afraid of the sun. This situation became even worse after she became mute.The last time she left the house was two weeks ago when she had to go for surgery.However, she worried about John. In the morning, Robyn told her John was hurt and needed to stay in the hospital to rest. However, she had a hard time believing what Robyn said.After spending so many years together with John, Anne reckoned she was the one who knew John the most. If it was a minor injury, John would never want to stay in the hospital. He cared too much about her and Sammie, so he never dared to let her worry about him. Therefore, it just did not sound reasonable if John would stay in the hospital because of a small injury.Furthermore, Robyn had not returned home since the morning, which was nearly three hours since she left the house. After much consideration, she decided to call

    Tara fell silent upon hearing this. She bit her lip nervously and shot Gwen a tentative glance. "I didn't mean to offend you, Gwen…" "I know." Gwen let out an exhale and interrupted Tara before she could finish, "I know you meant no harm, but I can't deny that this is something I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around. In the future, neither of you—even you, Luna—should bring this up again." Her love life was such a mess that not even she could unravel the ties, much less expect other people to understand. Tara pursed her lips and did not reply. Luna stared at Gwen in silence for a while before finally saying, "But you have to face this eventually, Gwennie. After all that you've been through with Luke, all of us hope for nothing but the best for the two of you. Even if you avoid it now, you'll have to face the truth eventually. Otherwise, are you planning on spending the rest of your life in this complicated relationship with Luke? Can you bear the thought of not being

    Stefan was mildly amused by the look on her face. He extended his arms out in a gesture of defeat and said, "I never intended on ratting you out to Joshua. You three spoke about these secrets in my presence." With that, he shot Andy a rather helpless look. "Don't you agree, sir?" Andy was surprised to be called out all of a sudden. "Of course!" Although Gwen and Luke had been together for a long time, Luke had never much cared for maintaining good relations with his future father-in-law. He always thought his relationship with Gwen did not concern anyone else outside of the two of them. Combined with the fact that Andy had done some hurtful things to Gwen in the past, Luke grew even more disdainful of his future father-in-law. Because of this, he had never given Andy as much as a second glance throughout their relationship and rarely ever addressed him directly like this. The truth was, Stefan had already called out to Andy once before, during their rescue mission the day befor
